Cam Newton is the first NFL player in 60 years to win the
Heisman Trophy, a national championship, and be the No. 1 overall
draft pick in the same academic year.

In 2011, his rookie year, Newton set an NFL record for
touchdowns rushing in a season by a quarterback and became the
first player in league history to throw for 4,000 yards and rush
for 500. He helped the Carolina Panthers improve from 2-14 to 6-10
in one season.

For his efforts, Newton was awarded the 2011 Associated Press
NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, named the Pepsi NFL Rookie of the
Year and was selected to the 2011 Pro Bowl.

Following an impressive year at Auburn University in 2010,
Newton took home every major post-season award. He was also honored
by the House of Representatives as “the most outstanding college
football player in the United States.”

In 2015, Newton led the Carolina Panthers to a first place
finish in the NFC South with a record of 15-1, scoring an
impressive 45 touchdowns during the season. After a postseason
victory over the Seattle Seahawks, the Panthers took on the Arizona
Cardinals for the NFC Championship and a spot in Super Bowl 50.
Newton was outstanding once again as the Panthers cruised to a
commanding 49-15 victory. Newton will face off against the Denver
Broncos and legendary quarterback Peyton Manning for an opportunity
to win his first Super Bowl ring on February 7th.

Off the field, Newton has hosted several charitable events
focused on children’s needs and has plans to continue giving back
to the community.
